Health Care
The CAW represents over 27,000 members in the health care sector, a significant growth of about 1,300 members in the last three years. This sector now accounts for 12 percent of overall membership, which makes it one of the largest and fastest growing sectors in the union. As the health care sector continues to grow, increases in membership will give this sector in our union a critical mass with which to take on important campaigns at the bargaining table and in the political arena.
CAW members perform a wide range of health care services and are employed in a number of different workplaces across the country, including public hospitals, long-tern care facilities, nursing and retirement homes as well as a variety of community care and service agencies.
